Who was that individual Q was holding hands with aside from Mikuni when they walked past Jennifer near the end there? I actually think we might have seen them in the earlier episodes, though not realized that it was a person.

I think the twist will probably be that Mikuni defeated Kimimaro's father during his first battle surprisingly because he cared for his asset. Mikuni seeing history repeat itself tries to avoid facing Kimimaro and attempts to coerce him to join forces.

I only have few fanarts of them saved on my C folder (*has more Masakaki pics xD*) but I'll dump 'em here for you <3

SQUEEEE!!! Thank you~ (Masakaki pics would be lovely too *_*)

It was definitely an Asset. First showed up on episode one behind Q when Mikuni was selecting an Asset to fight the newbie.

I sure hope I'm wrong, though.

I also thought of that but... most of what I expect from series like [C] are usually different from what actually happens, so I told myself to forget about it, ahaha.

It would be interesting if that had been the case though. What a small world...

Quite an informative episode that was. So, that woman is part of some organization (that is relaying a bad aura in my eyes) that is sent to check out this whole "underworld financial district" business. She is an undercover agent seeking information on why the Midas money is flowing into the real world and the cause it does to people in real life. Masakaki just had to appear in front of her while she was finished with her bath. In any case, now that she is in the system, her primary target is the man who has a major influence in the financial business in the real world, Mikuni, who apparently is one of the "big guys" in the Financial District as well. Not much is known about him, other than the fact that he has a lot of cards with a lot of fake names. Quite a mysterious guy we got here.

Kimimaro is looking for clues on how his father disappeared. He first goes to his aunt, who tells him that his parents truly love him, which he does not believe. He goes through some old files and finds out that his father indeed was partaking in the financial business. He does to the underworld and immediately asks Masakaki for answers. Mikuni brings him to an informer instead, who tells him that he's the type that really loves money and would do anything to obtain it. After doing bankrupt, he hung himself. Mikuni tells his backstory to Kimimaro, saying that his father was also in this only to make money for himself. He did not even spend anything on his sister, who was really sick and would have been saved if they chipped in money for her. So, what he did when he entered the games was immediately buy out his father's company to make it his own. Had he not told him about this, would he have been himself? The next episode features a second fight for Kimimaro, but is he really prepared to do this after what he has heard thus far?

I'm not sure how "undercover" she is. It's possible (likely, even, from what we've seen of him) that Masakaki knows exactly who she is, who she works for, and what her mission is. And that he doesn't care.

I'm not sure Mikuni loves money, either. Not the "hoard it and swim in it" kind of love, anyway.

I think for him, it's about power and revenge. He wants the power to change things, to make people do what he wants them to do, especially the kind of people who value money (the kind of money that to him is pocket change) more than pride or family. And thus take revenge on his father and the society that let his little sister die.

That's what he said when he pwned the newbie in ep. 1 so I assumed that he does but yeah, not that kind of way.

Ah, that's possible but... the cards are labeled as "Normal", "Plantinum", "Gold", and "Darkness"... so perhaps it's a credit card level-like, not exactly the "card depends on the character using" reason.
